The maximum grade identified within the 1.50mt intercept was 0.50mt of 45.2% U308. In addition, further assays for gold and platinum group metals content are forthcoming. These latest results reinforce Fission’s belief that the J-Zone represents a new discovery of unconformity mineralization at the company’s Waterbury Lake Project in the Athabasca Basin.
The company said that all intersections are down-hole. Other notable results include hole WAT10-065A, which intersected 2mt at the unconformity (203.5mt-205.5mt) grading 1.62% U308 and hole WAT10-64D, which assayed 0.10% U308 over 2mt (211mt and 213.5mt).
The company added that the J-Zone remains open at depth and along strike. Fission plans to continue drilling through February to mid-March.
